One Pocket Ghost

Well, first off let me say that I had the pleasure of meeting several of the posters both from this site and from Steve Booths great onepocket.org site - wish I would have met more - and I was looking forward to meeting JAM and was sorry that she couldn't be there...JAM, you've given all of us action reports from a lot of tournaments that you were at and we weren't, so now we have a chance to return the favor - and Hondo, I didn't know that you were going to be there or I would have made a point to hustle, er, I mean meet you ^_^
There were a whole lot of DCC match-ups that I was going to give reports on, but many of our AZ brothers like Fred Agnir, sweatinNbettin, nfty9er, and others have already done a great job posting about most of these sessions....The biggest/$$$ sessions have already been reported on, but there's a few smaller/$$ sessions that I can maybe add to the list - I might get a detail wrong, so don't kill me if I do.....
Chris from Chicago ( plays real sporty 1pocket, but a lot of people don't know him cuz he's always playing poker instead of pool ) beat Durbin 2 nights in a row playing even 1pocket for several K....Eric came to chicago last spring to play Chris, and Chris busted him there too.
Jet the black bank pool player, also from Chicago, played Tony Chohan even banks for several K....Tony won.........Jet also cried/scammed his way into getting Jason Miller to giving him one-hit-and-the-pick in banks - I don't know how it turned out.
Jamie Farrel gave Ike the 8 playing 9ball.....Ike won 2 sets for a total of 1 K
On two different days Steve Booth and myself were playing $30 1pocket ( we attracted no sweaters to our game ) ....Since both Steve and myself are still undercover, I'm not saying how we were playing, or who got the cheese ^_^
Well, I think that all of you hard core/degenerate-gambler addicted/beyond after hours sessions, lovers of pool room gambling, like myself will enjoy visualizing my final report....and I don't know what the match-up was, or for how much, and it doesn't matter.......
.......After 9 days at the DCC, it's 1:00 Sunday afternoon and I'm getting into my car to drive home...I decide to pull up in front of the hotel lobby to run in and take a last pre-nostalgic look around and to grab a cheese danish for the road. The tournament room is locked up, everybodys gone, all of the players have checked out, and the vendor hallway is empty/deserted. Well, I glance in the action room and they haven't dismantled the tables yet. There's about 10 unknown guys sitting around, probably locals who don't have to travel home, and what are they watching....Scott Frost and Mika Immonen are playing each other on one of the tables....What a beautiful sight....I can't wait till next year.....
